That latter.... may.... not be quite fair.
However, as a read around a few other bits 'n bobs would indicate that you cannot be considered a true e-martyr unless you have questions the gods of e-dom and had their minions shout at you to repent. So I guess it's worth it.
Being a man, and hence incapable of multitasking, I'll have to get on today's Indy right away or I'll forget.
Politicians step up the battle to secure the green vote
Mr Cameron... stole a march on ministers yesterday by announcing plans for a set of "environmental taxes" intended to curb air travel.
What I heard made quite a lot of sense, which is more than I can say for the BBC blonde's attempt to spin it otherwise. Shame about the green laces nonsense, though.
The Chancellor will call today for a "new world order" ....
No, really, that's how it's being pitched? Who writes their stuff? Because if that's what comes first then what comes next, no matter how rational, is not getting read. By me at least (ok, I will. I have too).
The rest was so much hogwash. If they are still banging on about Dave's turbine, the Indy needs to wake up in this decade and smell the Fairtrade herbal tea from the back allotment.
Which political party is the greenest?
Er... the Green party?
No, seriously. Last time I looked, they were a political party and do seem pretty, well' green.
As to whether that's enough to be in power, or indeed to be trusted with running a country and balance the enviro-stuff is another matter. But still.
Tony Juniper: This new political battleground is welcome
FoE he's a Jolly good fellow!
Guardian - Labour to set legal limit on UK carbon emissions
Guardian - Brown and Cameron battle over green air travel and phasing out old-style light bulbs
Guardian - Scientists give cautious welcome to environmental initiatives - In light of a lot else recently, what, exactly, are 'scientists' ? I'm betting a few chaps whose numbers they know and are good for a quick quote.
